Your team
Brand Solutions is the creative partnerships department of RTL AdAlliance, working alongside colleagues across Europe and the US to evangelise and educate on the topic of creative solutions both internally and externally, and creating strong responses to briefs. We work predominantly on broadcast (sponsorship, product placement, special ads, etc) as well as with digital publisher solutions and in recent years podcasts, meaning each working day is never the same.
